The answer to this problem is B
No, it is not possible for Eric to have spent 35 minutes playing basketball if he plays for a total of exactly 95
<h3>How to form a linear equation</h3>
Let the time taken to play basketball be "x"
Let the time taken to play volleyball be "y"
According to the information given, Eric plays basketball and volleyball for a total of 95 minutes every day, then;
x + y = 95
If he plays basketball for 25 minutes long, then;
x = 25
The pair of linear equations that represents the statement are:
x + y = 95
x = 25
The time it takes Eric to play volleyball every day is expressed as:
y = 95 - x
y = 95 - 25
y = 70 minutes
No, it is not possible for Eric to have spent 35 minutes playing basketball if he plays for a total of exactly 95

If you would like to solve the equation x^2 + 12 * x = -11, you can calculate this using the following steps:
x^2 + 12 * x = -11
<span>x^2 + 12 * x + 11 = 0
</span>(x + 1) * (x + 11) = 0
1. x = - 1
2. x = - 11
The correct result would be x = - 1, or x = - 11.
Solve for x:
x^2 + 4 x + 25 = 0 I ssume that's the notation.
Subtract 25 from both sides:
x^2 + 4 x = -25
Add 4 to both sides:
x^2 + 4 x + 4 = -21
Write the left hand side as a square:
(x + 2)^2 = -21
Take the square root of both sides:
x + 2 = i sqrt(21) or x + 2 = -i sqrt(21)
Subtract 2 from both sides:
x = i sqrt(21) - 2 or x + 2 = -i sqrt(21)
Subtract 2 from both sides:
Answer: x = i sqrt(21) - 2 or x = -i sqrt(21) - 2
